    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 6, 2016
    based on 24 ratings
     | 21,874 views

    The Bible would be a depressing book about sinful people... if it weren't for the "last chapter". God took the story of Adam and Eve and built His last chapter of the story around a man, a garden and a tree. What do these 3 tell us about God's plan?

    OPEN: I read the true story of a little girl who was sick and home from school. She and her mother got to talking about what they’d learned in Sunday School the day before and the little girl said: “If it weren’t for Adam and Eve, I wouldn’t be sick.” Her mother was ...read more

    OPEN: There’s a story about church whose Sunday School decided to allow the children to stage their own impromptu Christmas pageant.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,912 views

    "I did it my way" is the battle cry that sums up what so many people feel about their lives. They think this is a great idea... but it isn't. Why not?

    Back in 2010 there’s the true story of a British man named Shawn Murtagh who decided to wear a Halloween costume. To complete the costume he had a sequined top hat he wanted to wear at an angle on his head. But it wouldn’t quite stay on, so instead of attaching the hat to his head with a string, ...read more

    For The Remission Of Sins Series

    Contributed by Ron Freeman, Evangelist on Nov 6, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,531 views

    To clarify that the preposition “for” in the phrase:” for the remission of sins" does not mean "because." The Greek word "eis" means “for, into, unto, or toward” in all reputable Greek-English New Testament Interlinear. Denying this truth rejects the scriptures.

    INTRODUCTION Outline. 1. For the Remission of Sins Remarks. 1. In this lesson today, we will be discussing the theme: “For the Remission of Sins." This is the ninth lesson in the sermon-series entitled: "Re-digging in Old Wells." There will be many others bearing this title. We are ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 5, 2023
     | 3,065 views

    This important message is a fundamental teaching about the Holy Spirit. We will examine the work of the Spirit in a believer’s life, and look at ways we can quench the work of the Spirit within. We look at a number of ways we can grieve the Spirit God gave us.

    MESSAGE 14 - 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 5:19 – DO NOT QUENCH THE HOLY SPIRIT; DO NOT GRIEVE HIM This message is an extension of the previous one. We are now going to consider the quenching of the Spirit in fuller detail. {{1Thessalonians 5:19 “Do not quench the Spirit.”}} (NASB) Here is a ...read more

    The Wonder Of Jesus’ Crucifixion Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 24, 2013
    based on 109 ratings
     | 110,335 views

    Jesus shed His blood several times during the last 24 hours of His life. And there is a powerful story to be found in blood and water that came from Jesus’ side. Do you know what that story is? And do you know what it can mean to your life?

    In Oklahoma, someone saw this poster promoting a Red Cross blood drive: "I gave my blood. Christ gave his. I give a pint. He gave all. The needle is small, sharp. The nails were large, dull. The table soft, restful. The cross rough, painful. The nurses ...read more

    based on 38 ratings
     | 30,414 views

    Jesus saved us to live a wild and adventurous life. But how can we do that? We're not apostles like Peter and John were. We don't have their courage and experience. We're just common ordinary folks... or are we?

    OPEN: When we first started this series, I sang the chorus to “Born To Be Wild” (by Steppenwolf). This morning I want to sing for you the 1st phrase of the first verse of that song: “Get your motor runnin' - Head out on the highway. Lookin' for adventure and whatever comes our ...read more

    An Unshakeable Nickname

    Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Apr 25, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,333 views

    For a man named "Doubting Thomas", he makes one of the greatest confessions of faith: "My Lord and my God!" This sermon briefly walks through the text and examines Thomas' confession in an applicable way for the hearer by breaking the confession down into two chunks.

    Sometimes, it just isn’t possible to shake a nickname. One of my favorite athletes, Landon Donovan, has that problem. Landon is arguably one of the best soccer players the United States has ever produced, but has the nickname, “Landy Cakes.” How did he get that? By constantly underachieving ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,657 views

    The only man who seemed to know who Jesus was was Pilate, and he says things that make you think he's reading from a script... God's script. Why would that be?

    A group of people volunteered to do a parachute jump for charity. On their first day of training, the instructor made an important point about preparing for landing at 300 feet off the ground.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,436 views

    To establish that there are some things too impossible for God to do. Didn’t Jesus say: “There is nothing too impossible for God?” Yes, but Paul wrote: “It is impossible for God to lie." Can God forgive any without baptism?

    INTRODUCTION Outline. 2. To forgive any without baptism Remarks. 1. This is lesson two, in the sermon-series entitled: "Things too impossible for God." Our scripture lesson declares: "With men this is impossible, but with God, all things are possible," Matthew 19:26. And Paul ...read more

    The Day Of Death Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 23, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,271 views

    Would you baptize someone on Halloween? One preacher refused to do that because he saw Halloween as a focus on death... and he didn't want the young girl he was baptizing to become confused by the aura of death in the season, and having that connection ruin her walk with Christ.

    Ordinarily I read a Scripture before each sermon because anything the Bible says is more important than what I have to say. But today I'm not going to do that. The text will still be there in the body of the sermon, but I'm not reading first because I don't want to spoil the surprise. ...read more

    THE GOSPEL WRITERS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT – DO WE REALLY NEED 4 OF THEM? What if we had simply 3 gospel writers, or just 2 of them, or only one gospel writer?
